To Us a Child is Born!

 



People who lived in the darkness of sin saw a great light. To them a Child was born - a Wonderful Counselor, a Mighty God an Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. That Child was also born in order for you to become a child of God.

 

   1Nevertheless, that time of darkness and despair will not go on forever. The land of Zebulun and Naphtali will be humbled, but there will be a time in the future when Galilee of the Gentiles, which lies along the road that runs between the Jordan and the sea, will be filled with glory.

   2The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness , a light will shine.

   3You will enlarge the nation of Israel, and its people will rejoice. They will rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest and like warriors dividing the plunder.

   4For you will break the yoke of their slavery and lift the heavy burden from their shoulders. You will break the oppressor's rod, just as you did when you destroyed the army of Midian. 5The boots of the warrior and the uniforms bloodstained by war will all be burned. They will be fuel for the fire.

   6For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called : Wonderful Counselor, Might God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace

 

~Isaiah 9:1-6

I read a lot from a book called The Bible in 366 days for Woman. Its a passage from the bible day by day, and I love reading and reflecting on bible passages. Actually I love anything that helps me grow closer to God. So I would love to start sharing each passage I read every day.
